Around Martinsville: Home of the World’s Largest Horseshoe

Spread the love

Visitors to the Martinsville Ag Fair grounds are greeted by a landmark you won’t find anywhere else: an arch proclaiming the fair “Home of the World’s Largest Horseshoe,” with the giant horseshoe itself standing beneath it.

Steel silhouettes of a racehorse and a harness racer frame the entrance, a nod to the horse events the fairgrounds are known for.

The fairgrounds are a familiar stop for Martinsville families. Watch Martinsville Local for fair dates and events as the season approaches.
